"Thoughts on Manifolds is an album of impossible shapes, anomalous physics and quite unusual calibre." (Electronic Sound)

"An audible statement of an otherworldly architecture - a mind's outlook into one of many futures shaped by Blank Wall Season." (zenevloed)

THOUGHTS ON MANIFOLDS (GEN050) by BLANK WALL SEASON (@blankws) is a feather light, mixed-material showroom of synthetic objects, constantly rolling, constricting, zooming, bubbling, evoking some vast space. Impossibly thin, transparent foil, crisp, ice cold fluids, metal on rubber impacts etching elaborate diagrams and schemes into ambiguous, lush techno-reminiscent chords. The sound arrangement here is akin to a granular breeze, like an alien meteorology, a particle simulation turning into a textural primordial soup. Constantly in acceleration or deceleration, the listener knows every vast saturated pad is seconds away from the rush of a blast-off, almost intolerable G-forces, images flashing in front of one's eyes, bullet-like hard pans. These operations are like a valve being turned, the sudden pressure release causing a stream of some noble gas being set free, or opening a shutter suddenly providing a flicker of light highlighting the contours of some cavernous lost zone.

// About GEN050
/ Blank Wall Season about the album
“Another foggy night, as you step out from the exit of a club, every 'feeling' you had is overlapped with sweat and you are stuck with emotions”
In the album, we hear one sample altering and folding into a wide spectrum of sonic reflections while hazy textures intersect with each other to create a crafted assemblage. Amongst this heap of sounds, you'll find some that you can't get through and realize that they are the ones that matter as it's all a journey within manifolds.

Blank Wall Season - Opening

For EYX010 London-based Italian producer Ikävä Pii returns on the label (following their first appearance with ‘EPOS Digitale’ from September 2021) with a new mind-melter EP titled ‘Process
Fatigue’, their first release of 2022.

Written “literally” while keeping “Discord and Ableton open at all times” and funnelling “ideas from one channel to the other”, ‘Process Fatigue’ contains four quirky club ready cuts reflecting the
intent of the artist in developing new creative processes.

A downshifting sound signals the beginning of Protocol Art, the opening track introducing the listener to the new broad palette of sound from the Italian produce. This dance tool plays around
the alternation of rhythm and melody, while enveloped synthesisers and warped samples convolute into kaleidoscopic musical textures until the last bell hits and dissolves into silence.

Fast paced hit-hats, a syncopated rhythmic session and analog harmonies and effects follow next in Group Chats with High Signal-to-Noise Ratio Become Coops, delivering an unconventional DJ
tool with an incredible attention to sound designs.

Reaching towards the core of Ikävä Pii’s latest work there is title track Process Fatigue, which brings the listener into dark dubstep and obscure dance influenced territories driven by leading sub basses, an incessant kick and a glitchy percussions.

The closing cut is Relevant Channel which kicks off with atmospherical pads, a combination of wild gamelan percussions, tweaked synthesisers and time stretching effects succeeded
imminently diverting the track into a flamboyant rhythmic dance.

Ikävä Pii said:
“How do we decide how to decide? Process Fatigue is an involuntary reflection of the shared
Sisyphean nature of grassroots organising and artistic creation.
It was composed while researching a method and developing a set of tools for both SODAA (the
London collective working on a model for a community-operated club) and a new personal
creative cycle; Discord and Ableton open at all times, ideas crossing from one channel to another -
while also adjusting to chronic tiredness.
New protocols spawn new art and ways of sharing it - but avoid fetishising the process, or you’ll
get stuck. Just make the tune! Do the party! Mess up! Have fun!”
‘Process Fatigue’ is available on all platforms starting from Friday 18th November 2022.

Relevant Channel

This song is called The Dawn of Everything.

It was born between unlearning the past and watching the future unfold.

It is dedicated to the people of Iran and their bravery in rising up after the murder of Jina Amini.

A song for the tremors that rise when a new life starts to feel possible against all odds — Jin Jiyan Azadi.

All proceeds from sales will be donated to an organisation called Human Rights In Iran - persian.iranhumanrights.org

lyrics
There is a trail
At the beginning
At the dawn of everything

A long lonely time
Under the dust of combat
Life itself is in exile

There is a trail
At the beginning
At the dawn of everything

There's a lone whistler
And others you can't see

She summons them
They pour down from the mountain

Oh the wind the wind is blowing
Through the graves the wind is blowing
Freedom soon will come

There is a trail
At the beginning
At the dawn of everything

new 1:22h mix with @forces(Helsinki, Finland)

"Constantly mutating rhythms and sharp digital textures shape the sound of Forces. Forces is the electronic music project of Finnish interdisciplinary artist Joonas Siren. Different live-coding and processing techniques are used to make dense atomized swirls; electronic and sometimes chaotic abstract oceans of sound."

Live Simulation by Theo Triantafyllidis

Commissioned by M Museum Pavilion for Floriade Expo 2022, NL

A precious slice of microscopic life preserved in an intensive care terrarium. Through a moist glass surface and within lush vegetation expands a busy Colony of Ants. Slowly and painstakingly they are working to form a brittle purple mud into a structure they can call home. From this structure grows an entire forest of tiny flowering plants. Branching and blooming in every direction, they are calling to be pollinated by buzzing Honey Bee replicas. An Aromatic Snail and a Dung Beetle provide help, while a Storm Mantis and a Sugar Spider complete the ecosystem of microfauna, praying for a snack. All but self-sustaining, this closed terrarium system is engineered to simulate all the necessary natural cycles for the fragile community of organisms. The flow of nutrients, hormones, moisture and temperature constantly regulated under the sound of insects buzzing. An experiment in resilience and entropy carefully monitored by a mysterious figure, contemplating on the paradox of environmental repair.

*This is an approximation of the final audio which was generative and fluid.

Carmen Jaci - Heidi's Song

Pied pipers lost in a dream. 
A blackened butterfly on the shoulder of one, 
A bipedal familiar looming in the peripheral of the other.
At their feet, hidden memories unravel under the surface of a cloudy mire. 
They climb up a waterlogged tree and etch a word of advice into the bark:
“Be careful not to lose your mourning cloak - it might come in handy later.”

The 33rd release of katharsis is the EP “unearthed, recovered” by the Canadian artist online threat. This release pulls from the dissociated feeling of re-discovering artifacts of remembrance that were once thought to be forever lost, and finding a glimmer of hope as a result. The project accesses a flurry of genres - hard trance, noise, and ambient all find a place here, packing contradicting sounds together in order to birth new sonic possibilities. “unearthed, recovered” is emotional, grotesque and at moments beautiful with its sense of longing and melancholy, a crescendo of tensions followed by an exhale.

On this release, online threat excavates the hidden sonic potentialities of field recordings, samples and synthesis, borrowing their voices to spin immersive narrative tales through his stream-of-consciousness improvisational method. The EP is the artist's third release, following the EP “Memories of Dawns Lost” and the full album “Contrapuntal Transfiguration” on labels surf and Absurd TRAX, besides a couple of self-released tracks and mixfiles. The artwork was made by Matej Mihevc (@h.265_/) who framed and contextualized a painting by Victoria Palacios (@victoriapalacios_), reflecting the sense of decay and reminiscence that the album thematizes.

On generative processing webs + the writhing hydra of rhizomatic LFO systems 
The minotaurs flesh has bonded with the labyrinth i am hugging it and petting and playing with it

Soothing resonance flowing in from all who surround you with unyielding virality _rippling over your skin through your shell across invisible roots connected to all past selves _ we experience unified stillness for a moment in tonal harmony
